I never received this book, and I'm not very happy about it.

Customer Rating:
I hoped to have this book within the 3 weeks before I moved away. I guess I'll have to order from someone else.

Sandy is right on the money.This book is for anyone who wants to save TAX dollars from being sent to Uncle Sam and being put in your own pocket.

Awesome book

Customer Rating:
This is a well written book that takes something as boring as taxes and makes it interesting. Not just because the legal based tax advise contained within will save you $$$, but because the author is able to present it in a fun, humorous and entertaining manor. Well done Mr. Botkin.

Excellent tax strategies for the wage earner

Customer Rating:
This is an excellent book for anyone looking to learn about tax strategy, especially if they are looking to offset their W-2 earnings. It's true that the author leans heavily towards starting a business, but he also suggests that this is where the majority of the tax breaks are.

While it may seem that only business owners can benefit from these tax breaks, there is also the suggestion that a side home-based business would satisfy these tax requirements for those high wage earners out there. With so many network marketing companies around, this would be an easy venture for anyone to take on.

I would highly recommend that you read this book with an open mind and consider the possibility of a home-based business as a tax strategy for your high income. If you do, you will definitely reap the benefits of this book and you will do it properly, legally and in compliance with the IRS.

Useless for most, great for small business

Customer Rating:
This book should really be titled "How Small Businesses can Minimize their Taxes." That is the entire focus of the book. (Note that this includes consultants and other types of small businesses.) It covers a lot of topics in an organized manner, giving useable advice and not just concepts.

If you do not have a small business, will this book convince you to do so? Probably not. For example, you can deduct your entertainment expenses - as long as you invite complete strangers over to your house.

If you own or are seriously considering starting your own business, this book is worth getting. If not, don't bother.
